* A MookLieutenant gets taken hostage by Grey in the middle of the tunnel fight, and starts screaming to Mason to surrender before they kill him. Mason responds with a hilarious "who, me?" gesture, then shrugs indifferently and lets him die.

* Minsoo lights a cigarette to the shock of everyone around him (they thought cigarettes were extinct). He takes a puff and the entire compartment happily breathes in his secondhand smoke.

** During the first half of the fight, Curtis is running rampant... and then slips on the fish the mooks had used to try intimidating the Tail Sectioners earlier.

*When Mason starts to speak to the tailenders, the translators repeat what she says. Mason shuts them up by telling them not to bother, as they only got 7 minutes until Andrew's arm is frozen. It's some great BlackComedy.

** Edgar goes on a two minute rant at Minsoo at one point, cursing him and his addiction out in a delightfully annoyed way. Minsoo meanwhile snarks right back at him, just fanning the flames. Curtis looks ''this'' close to slapping both of them.

* The FacelessMooks suddenly stopping the fight when the train crosses Yekaterina Bridge, as reaching this place indicates a new year has begun. Why do they shortly stop fighting? To loudly wish an Happy New Year!
** Not just to wish a Happy new year. It is all previously planned: after the bridge, the train will go through a long tunnel. The "Happy New Year" is both to pump them up and remind them to remember to whip out Night Vision Goggles and retaliate.

* There's a dark but funny CutawayGag when Wilford says, "We've got enough crazy people on this train," and the film immediately cuts to [[spoiler: [[AxCrazy Franco]] [[ImplacableMan the Elder,]] who is revealed to have survived his fight with the Curtis and co.]]

to:

** Just after said scene, Edgar complaining about getting oldold.
** Likewise, the [[MoodWhiplash brief halt]] in fighting while the train breaks its way through several barriers of ice, automatically causing everyone to either grab hold of something or be thrown around like peas in a can. Nobody moves until one of the soldiers officially declares "safe passage". It's obvious that it's so deeply ingrained in absolutely everybody that ''nothing'' -- not even a violent rebellion -- can go on until the all-clear. The fact that all of them momentarily snap from anger to annoyance just makes it better.

* Minsoo and Yona asking Curtis for Kronole every time they get to a new train car becomes a bit of a RunningGag. Very funny since Yona is always smiling cheerfully when she asks, and Curtis is always annoyed by their addictions taking precedence over his cause.
